Picking Berries

Today we finally went blackberry picking . We were supposed to go yesterday, but stuff happened.
Three deers came to eat berries while we were there. A momma dear and her two little fawns. They had the most extraordinary eyes, so sweet and innocent. They stood there for a minute like please leave our berries alone. ( I swear we only took enough for a cobbler. )
Then two sky blue dragonflys flew past me while I was picking , and I could have sworn they were faeries !
I have purple fingers, but I am quite happy.

By the way, has anyone ever read The Yearling? I loved that book.
